DODGE [SKILL PASSIVE]

Type: Combat

Description:
 This skill increases your ability to dodge enemy attacks. Even without this
 skill you will be able to dodge, but practicing this skill will give you
 a much better dodge. 

 Dodge is a passive skill, which means you do not need to type any command
 for it to work (i.e. it is always active...)

 Dodge is affected by things like your position and style. Only while standing
 or fighting will your dodge bonus be exploited fully. Resting, Sleeping or
 being Stunned will all decrease your dodging ability more or less. Your style
 also affects your dodge. The more defensive styles will increase your dodge,
 while the offensive styles will decrease it.

 Some equipment might also affect your dodge, both positively and negatively.
 Armour for instance, might make it harder for you to move efficiently, and
 thus decrease your dodge. While a cloak in a blur of motion makes it harder
 for the opponent to aim correctly, thus a slight dodge bonus might be 
 discovered.

 The higher the proficiency level of the dodge skill, the more bonus the skill
 will add to your original dodge.
